Abstract		The mycorrhizal potential of differently polluted forest researcn plots in the emission area Thermal Power Plant in Šoštanj (Zavodnje and Mislinja) was analysed. Types of ectomycorrhizae on short roots of six - months old Norway spruce seedlings were briefly described, from which the "black and dark brown" types are presented here. We compared their anatomical and morphological characteristics to other known black types of ectomycorrhizae. In the first series of analyses two black types were identified: Piceirhiza horti - atrata (A93) and a type with characteristics, similar to the type Quercirhiza atrata (C93). In the second series, two more types of ectomycorrhizae were identified: the type H94 and the type Cenococcum geophilum (I94). In contrast to some previous reports, we could not correlate the occurrence of black types of ectomycorrhizae to the more polluted soils.
